Q: Is the number of people who enroll going to be lower than those that have been receiving cancellation notices?

MR. CARNEY: Jon, I would simply ask you to wait until the data are released. I think it’s fair to say that the enrollment figures will be low and were going to be low anyway. They will be significantly lower because of the challenges posed by the faulty website.

Q: Well, what will that say? I mean, what kind of message is that if more people have received cancellation notices than actually have been able to enroll?

MR. CARNEY: I would say that it would say two things. One, the history of these kinds of programs — and Massachusetts is the best model — show that enrollment is very slow early on. I think there were only 123 people in Massachusetts who enrolled in the first month. And while it’s a small state, it’s a reasonably populous state, and 123 is a very low number.
